EasyTurf, a longtime distributor of the FieldTurf line of landscaping products, joins over 200 other exhibitors at the 2014 Landscape Expo, which will be hosting thousands of landscape professionals on October 29 and 30 in
Long Beach, Calif.

EasyTurf is scheduled to showcase their industry-leading synthetic turf at the 2014 Landscape Expo, the number one landscape trade show and educational conference in the West, which is taking place in Long Beach, Calif.,
October 29 and 30.

Their exhibit at the show will demonstrate the energy saving and water conscious systems associated with their fastest growing artificial grass applications, pet, rooftop, playground and commercial landscapes, which can be largely engineered with recycled products, adding to the environmentally friendly nature of synthetic turf.

"We have been an innovator of synthetic grass landscaping and has taken a leading role in educating consumers of our many benefits," said Dave Hartman, company president. "We're excited to join the Landscape Expo and show homeowners how we can improve their homes and quality of life."

According to the company, the California drought will prompt many home and business owners to consider artificial turf for their future landscaping needs.

"When natural grass is a part of landscape irrigation costs, 60 percent of those costs go to watering sod - not only is the water conserved [when artificial grass is installed] but so is the energy that would be used to get that 60 percent of irrigation from point a to point b," said Jackie Luper, the company's vice president, marketing.

EasyTurf uses a proprietary, 100 percent permeable artificial grass surface backing, MaxxFlow, designed for effective drainage capabilities so that unlike a grass lawn, rain will not turn it into a mud pit.

"Our superior synthetic grass products are matched by a dedication to exceptional craftsmanship and customer service," Hartman said.

World-renowned dog whisperer, Cesar Millan recently introduced this artificial grass as his turf-of-choice for pet owners. Millan says drainage was critical in his decision to partner with the company on the 10,000 square feet of artificial grass at his Dog Psychology Center in Santa Clarita, Calif.

"We have a lot of land to cover, so it's important to me that our landscaping is easy to care for, safe for our pack and has proper drainage," said Millan. "Not only does Easy Turf look just like natural grass, it helps to eliminate common lawn problems associated with pets like brown spots from urine, tracked in mud, grass clippings and it can even deter your dog from digging holes."
